Triggering Commands
ABORt
Clears any pending delayed trigger and returns the trigger system to idle. If INIT:CONT is enabled, the trigger system
is continuously initiated.
INITiate[:IMMediate]
Cause the trigger system to initiate. When the trigger system is initiated, an event on the specified trigger source
causes the corresponding trigger action on the power supply output. This command completes one full trigger cycle
when the trigger source is IMMediate or initiates the trigger subsystem when the trigger source is BUS.
INITiate:CONTinuous ON | 1 | OFF | 0
INITiate:CONTinuous?
Enables or disables continuous initiation of the trigger system. If this is disabled, an INIT initiates the trigger system
for only one trigger action. If this is enabled, the trigger system is continuously initiated and INIT is redundant. The
query returns 1 (ON) or 0 (OFF).
*TRG
Generates an event trigger to the trigger system when the trigger system has a BUS (software) trigger as its trigger
source (TRIG:SOUR BUS). If the trigger system is not initiated, the *TRG command is simply ignored.
TRIGger[:SEQuence]:DELay <seconds> MINimum | MAXimum
TRIGger[:SEQuence]:DELay? [MINimum | MAXimum]
Sets the time delay (in seconds, from 0 to 32.767) from the detection of a bus trigger to the start of any
corresponding trigger action on the power supply output. The default is 0, and the query returns a number of the
form +#.########E+##.
TRIGger[:SEQuence]:SOURce BUS | IMMediate
TRIGger[:SEQuence]:SOURce?
Specifies the source from which the instrument will accept a trigger, either a bus (software) trigger or an internal
immediate trigger. At *RST, the bus trigger source is selected. To ensure synchronization when the bus source is
selected, send the *WAI (wait) command. You can also use the *OPC? (operation complete) query or the *OPC
command to indicate when the operation has completed. The query returns BUS (wait for trigger command) or IMM
(continuous triggering).
